Two clocks are being tested against a standard clock located in a national laboratory. At 12:00:00 noon by the standard clock, the readings of the two clocks are :
`{:(,"Clock1", "Clock 2"),("Monday",12:00:05:,10:15:06),("Tuesday",12:01:15,10:14:18),("Wednesday",11:59:08,10:15:18),("Thursday",12:01:50,10:15:07),("Friday",11:59:15,10:14:53),("Saturday",12:01:30,10:15:24),("Sunday",12:01:19,10:15:11), ("Sunday",12:01:19,10:15:11):}`
If you are doing an experiment that requires precision time interval measurements, which of the two clocks will you prefer? The range of variation in time of clock ?
